Never ceases to amaze us how sweet the chicks are when they arrive! We ventured out into a little bit differant avenue this time though! We bought what is called a "top hat" they are kinda a rare breed. We now have the "Blk Crested Polish Top Hats". What a mouth ful for such a little guy! Their head feathers are more hair like when grown and they resemble or little Shizu Rapunzel....just their little beak will stick out !...LOL Also another little guy with a huge name is "Red Shouldered Yokahamas" . They stay a small bird and their tail feathers can get to be several feet long, these too are a rare bird. We also now have two baby goslings ... rather large compared o the rest of the crew. Three ducks...so cute! And the four turkeys...well...can you say Happy Thanksgiving? Or that is the plan..lol. We recently had two hatching here as well! Two little dominique chicks. We have three differant types now in the incubator as well and are due in two weeks. Updates to follow. The photos of our newest are in the slide show to the right as I still can't make my pictures onto the blog area...aaaaahhh... |

Well ... |
Daddy showed us how to fix "Dinner". He made it look so easy. (He cheats as he grew up doing this type thing) As we were dressing the chicken we had a mini biology course with the kids. They were very interested to see the inside and learn the functions of each. Then off to the kitchen! Daddy enjoyed his chicken! We were not so hungry right then so we had sandwiches. But, I did take a tiny taste and it did taste like chicken.Posted in Latest Science Experiments

The post office called at 5:30am today and said our baby chicks had arrived. We all jumped in the car. And off we went. They were so noisy andlooked very healthy. We got them home and immediately feed them the Grogel B suppliment. We had ordered 25 pullets and 5 males. After looking for awhile we decided to count them. Much to our surprise we had 53 pullets and 5 males! The company said it was their mistake and we were welcome to keep them. Now we have a really huge project. Anyone need any eggs? |
